8.[问答题] When I was a boy growing up in New York in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. White. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a five-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coins in his pocket. He noticed this one day during the delivering of milk and gave me a coin as a small gift.
Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would write a note—“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next day”—and placed it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would come.
A.
9.[问答题] Several times on his trips to China, which he made as a guest of the Chinese government, Bill’s birthday occurred while he was in Beijing. On these occasions he was given a dinner in his honor and Premier Zhou En-lai would attend. He remembered the first occasion:
At the hotel I always finished the meal with ice-cream and the girls there would laugh because I liked it so much. Zhou En-lai was at my birthday party and at the end he got up, went over to the counter and got an ice-cream and he put it down in front of me – this is the Prime Minister you know! He said “This is for you.” I said “I didn’t know you could speak English.” He laughed and he said “a little bit” measuring with his finger and thumb. Sometimes when we were alone then he’d speak to me in English.
A.
10.[问答题] Over the years, the giving of gifts and the exchange of Christmas greeting cards have become very important customs during the holiday. Some people have criticized the importance of gift-giving, believing that the hurly-burly of shopping for presents and delivering them detracts from the true “Christmas Spirit.” But even critics could not deny that the Christmas spirit of warmth and generosity is still apparent everywhere during the holiday season. Religious, civic and social organizations make sure that the poor, the lonely, and the elderly are remembered with gifts and festive food. Street corners with volunteers ringing small bells to solicit donations to help the needy have become part of the traditional Christmas scene. Families open their doors to friends and strangers far from home and ask them to join in the festivities.

11.[问答题] China is the world’s largest developing nation and the US is the world’s most developed large nation. Bilateral trade between the two has grown impressively. In the early part of the 1970s, there was virtually no trade. Today, two way trade is something in the order of $ 6 billion and increasing. Increasing amounts of American investment have taken place in China, and Chinese investment in the United States is also beginning. The result, I believe, is that we have built the beginnings of a sound foundation for future commercial and financial ties. China’s imports from the US, which amounted to $ 900 million in 1978, rose to nearly $ 3 billion in 1982. Exports rose from $ 300 million to $ 2.3 billion during the period. Total Chinese trade has also risen dramatically, from 1978 to 1983 Chinese exports increased from roughly $ 10 billion to $ 22 billion, while imports increased from $ 10 billion to just over $ 21 billion.

12.[问答题] Wherever you are, and whoever you may be, there is one thing in which you and I are just alike at this moment, and in all the moments of our existence. We are not at rest; we are on a journey. Our life is a movement, a tendency, ceaseless progress toward an unseen goal. We are gaining something, or losing something, everyday. Even when our position and our character seem to remain precisely the same, they are changing. For the mere advance of time is a change. It is not the same thing to have a bare field in January and in July. The season makes the difference. The limitations that are childlike in the children are childish in the man.
A.
13.[问答题] Tombs and temples of ancient Egypt follow the Nile well into Sudan. Driving Southward from Cairo into the valley, I entered a landscape that owed little to the present era. For the next 1,800 miles the thin blue ribbon of the Nile, flowing slowly north, unwound over brown soil and green fields, some only a few yards wide, others as broad as an Iowa cornfield. At the edge of the fields, rising in dramatic hills or stretching flat to the horizon, lay the brown barren deserts.
A.
14.[问答题] World food prices are pushing higher— the United Nations overall food index shows a 28.3% annual increase, with cereals up 44.1%—sparking concerns that a new food crisis may be emerging, just three years after the last one. Does this mean the world is sunning out of food?
The quick answer is that the world does seem to be running low on cheap food. This supply shortage stems from the failure of governments and donors over nearly three decades to fund the basic agricultural research, investments in rural infrastructure, and training for smallholder farmers necessary to push out the productivity frontier.
A.
15.[问答题] With equal passion I have sought knowledge .I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know why the star shines. And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flux. A little of this, but not too much, I have achieved.
Love and knowledge, as far as they are possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to the earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.
A.
16.[问答题] Spring is a season of freshness and greenness. It is considered by many to be the best time in the year. The weather is mild; the day long, and the night short. The grasses and the leaves are deeply covered in green color and full of fresh fragrance. The merry birds sing cheerily. Therefore, spring is a very enjoyable time and is better than the other seasons: summer, autumn, and winter.
The weather of summer is hot, while winter is cold and dreary. Both of these seasons are not for us to study. In the time of autumn, cold winds which are not at all pleasant generally blow. A.
17.[问答题] After I had talked for a few minutes with Chou En-lai, and explained who I was, he arranged for me to spend the night in Pai Chia P’ing, and asked me to come next morning to his headquarters, in a nearby village.
I sat down to dinner with a section of the Communications department, which was stationed here, and I met a dozen young men who were billeted in Pai Chia P’ing. Some of them were teachers in the partisan school, one as a radio operator, and some were officers of the Red Army. Our meal consisted of boiled chicken, unleavened whole-wheat bread, cabbage, millet, and potatoes, of which I ate heartily. But, as usual, there was nothing to drink but hot water and I could not touch it. I was famished with thirst.
A.
18.[问答题] The Internet has come a long way from its origins as a research network. Today, users routinely listen to radio broadcast across the net, download short videos from the World Wide Web and access information from thousands of government and private databases. But the fortuitous success and the growth of the Internet has severely strained the functional limits of the Internet protocol as well as the underlying router networks. Of even greater concern are the new applications in the offing which require far more facilities than the network now provides. Internet commerce, gigabyte file transfer, live video transmission, secured email/data and voice/video conferencing are just a few of the applications that Internet service providers are coming out with.

20.[问答题] Each day we make choices that affect our lives and, sometimes, the lives of others. Last year, on a simple Sunday, three days after Valentine”s Day, after many consecutive days of steady downpour, the sun came out. Earl and I decided to walk our dog. Somehow our path took us toward the park, across the footbridge high above the rolling waters of the Los Angeles River. It is like a dream to me now, floating through my mind in slow motion. Many children were playing close to the water, and we were stunned by their ignorance and daring. Two little boys in particular caught our attention. They were riding their bikes up and down the far bank of the river, taunting the water, obviously fascinated by its power and its draw.

21.[问答题] As a private American citizen I recognize that many of the bur¬dens and opportunities of our relationship have now passed to the non-governmental sectors of our two societies: to individuals, our corporations, universities, research institutes, foundations, and so on. There is no doubt that Sino-American relations have reached a new stage. In this context, it is important for our two societies to search for areas of cooperation which clearly add to our mutual benefit.

24.[问答题] To learn with success is not a difficult task if some fundamental principles are observed. Among these principles are diligence, devotion, constancy and punctuality.
All things can be conquered by diligence. It makes the foolish wise, the poor rich, and humble noble. On learning it produces a wonderful effect. A diligent fool will accomplish more than a lazy wit. None can prove the function of diligence better than Benjamin Franklin, the greatest American statesman and philosopher.
Devotion means to set our heart on one thing at a time. Never think of learning another subject while you are studying one thing. Those who often change their studies will never succeed in the long run. In order to learn successfully, we have to devote ourselves to the study of one subject at a time.

The last-known animal wound infestation that could be attributed to screw-worms occurred in February 1959.

33.[问答题] Historically, balancing both economic goals is difficult. The guns part of the equation increasingly weighs on the US economy, considering that the war in Iraq and other missions in Afghanistan and Africa cost between $ 3 billion and $ 5 billion a day. In August, the Congressional Budget Office estimated that as of June 2007 up to $ 500 billion has been spent on combat operations in Iraq.
The butter side of the economy also has challenges, including a massive buildup in household debt, a lack of prudent fiscal policies in Washington and a housing meltdown. The consumer relied on home equity and low mortgage rates—assured by foreign purchase of US debt―to finance their ongoing shopping binge. The purchase of a cornucopia of goods, many imported, drove America’s household savings into negative territory.

40.[问答题] Most people know that Marie Curie（居里夫人）was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, and the first person to win it twice. However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize winner.
Born in September, 1897, Irene Curie was the first of the Curie’s two daughters. Along with nine other children whose parents were also famous scholars, Irene studied in their own school, and her mother was one of the teachers. She finished her high school education at the college in Paris.
Like her mother, Irene combined family, and career. Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel Prize, along with her husband, in 1935. Unfortunately, also like her mother, Irene died from radioactivity on March 17, 1956.

50.[问答题] We will not, however, be able to grasp these opportunities unless our children are equipped with the mathematics and science skills needed to compete in a global marketplace. We need, too, to close the digital divide. The US ranks only 15th in the world in broadband access, with 45 million adults without it at home. The next president must make a top priority of building this 21st-century infrastructure, much as President Dwight D. Eisenhower saw the interstate highway system as vital to the nation’s economic growth in the mid-20th century.
The internet, which enables the open and free exchange of information, is critical to our future economic growth. It has already proved to be vital to entrepreneurs and America’s small businesses, which generate up to 80 percent of new jobs in the US. But continuing this record will require a strong federal commitment to keeping the internet open.
